Did anyone hear about the Mill Bay rescue and about a 15 year old who has been banned from BC Ferries???
Well the Mill Bay incident first, they rescued a man whos's Canoe was taking on water in Saanich Inlet on Monday. The guy saw the ferry and started waving at it. Passengers saw the man waving and told the Captain who turned the ship around and went and rescued him. The passengers and crew were very helpful to the guy who said he probably wouldent of made it if the ferry dident rescue him. Winds picked on Monday while he was in Saanich Inlet. Another article about this was in the paper today thanking BC Ferries.
Now the boy who was banned from BC Ferries. A Gabriola Island boy 15 years old has been banned from BC Ferries. The boy lives on Gabriola and goes to School in Nanaimo. Guess he screwed up that eh. How is he gonna get to school now? Guess he has to move off the island, lol! I dont know why he was banned the article said something about threats to the ferry system and his behaviour I think. Not totally sure on that one. But yeah that would suck being banned from the ferries and living on a Gulf Island. Guess he should think next time he goes and does something like that.
Just thought I would share these two stories I read.
